So Bad It's Good!

Sompote Sands: Guy from Thailand who makes shitty movies

Crocodile
It's like Jaws but with a crocodile. Includes a real live crocodile getting really killed.

Hanuman vs 7 Ultraman
Shitty hero based on a god Hanuman teams up with Ultraman and his Ultrabrothers. Features terrible effects, good effects, and crazy stuff.

Hanuman and the Five Riders
Hanuman's back and teaming up with some Kamen Riders. Has some naked hell scenes worthy of Coffin Joe and some kung fu bug men riding bikes in full costume through heavy Thai traffic.

I don't even know. It has horrible things with weird effects.


Also less mind-poppingly bad to more the just fun and goofy:
El Vampiro y El Sexo
Once upon a time a Mexican film company shot a softcore vampire movie around El Santo.

Nollywood/Ghallywood films often fall into this category.

Their movie posters are pretty dope, too.

There's a dub of an old Transformers show. I think it was done by one of the companies that did the terrible old Godzilla dubs. That's the story anyway, I don't know if it's true. Either way, this shit is unbelievably bad.

So once upon a time those assholes that brought us the awful animated Titanic films decided to shamelessly ripoff The Lion King, Bambi, and The Jungle Book and mixed it into a concoction of hell with all the lack of focus and consistency of a toddler on hardcore narcotics.
....and I kind of love it. They made an entire show out of this shameless nonsense and the sheer awfulness of it is entertaining as fuck.

The fact that they try to pass it off as a sequel to the Jungle Book is even more astounding than if it wasn't.
 
I love Garbage Pail Kids. It's filled with 80s cheese and it's so enjoyable.

I also have a soft spot for Faithful Hearts, Disneyfan's fic. Sure, it's long and dope and spergy, but it's cute at the same time seeing all these Disney characters together hanging out.

The 60s K. Gordon Murray kids films that he bought from Mexico and dubbed with no-name talent in Miami are incredibly, wonderfully bad. Some of you have probably seen the Mexican Santa Claus film where he lives in space with multicultural slave children and fights against Satan, but that's only the tip of the iceberg.

I have copies of the Murray Puss in Boots and Little Red Riding Hood and they're quite an experience - annoyingly dubbed characters with awful lipsync; songs with no real melody and stilted English lyrics; stuff that would be too gruesome to make it in an American kids' movie... if someone made kids' movies like that today I would want to go and see it.

Here is the start of what is arguably Murray's magnum opus, Little Red Riding Hood and the Monsters:


(Not to be outdone in this respect is another Florida filmmaker, Barry Mahon, who before getting into kids' films was a well-known porn director. Here's one of his classics:)

Kinda off topic since this is just so bad it's bad. Barry Mahon was (partially) responsible for the trainwreck of a kids film known as "Santa & the Ice Cream Bunny". Even with Rifftrax, this movie's a hard watch.

That reminds me, I wonder if there's any of Ed Wood's porn novels online. I want to read some but my interest in irony drops exponentially when I have to pay money for it.

If you watch it with the right mindset - and RiffTrax - it really is so-bad-it's-good. The Thumbelina version shown in the video above, that is. The version with Jack and the Beanstalk in the middle, which RiffTrax did live, isn't as funny, but does contain the rare male cameltoe.

(Interesting fact: Barry Mahon was the real-life inspiration for Steve McQueen's character in The Great Escape and was Errol Flynn's personal pilot.)

None that I can find, but I can see why you would want to read such classics as Raped in the Grass and Boy... Girl... Transvestite.

I just wonder how the dialog genius that is Ed "You see? You see? YOUR STUPID MINDS! STUPID! STUPID!" Wood handles sexy talk.
 
The My Friend Ganesha trilogy is pretty damn great, from what I can tell. The problem is that all the movies are in Hindi and it's nearly impossible to find them online with English subtitles. The first movie seems to be missing from the internet altogether. They're kid's movies about a kid with a shitty home life who becomes bffs with the Elephant god Ganesha. Said Indian god is depicted as a hip 90's kid with pierced ears and a backwards baseball cap.

I managed to get my hands on a scratched DVD of the second movie, so I had the privilege of watching part of it with subtitles. The gods are really, really poorly drawn and animated. Here's a dance number so you can get a taste of what the movie is like.

Wickedest Witch: A 1989 Halloween special starring Blanche from the Golden Girls, a bunch of knockoff Dark Crystal puppets, and a kid who looks kind of like Fred Savage.
